I have a farm and I love it there. There's really nothing to do, but even watching the chickens, its fun.

I like to eat. I'm always on the edge of how much can I eat without looking too - you know. If I eat something salty, it makes me want something sweet. I eat something sweet, then I want salty. And exercise is not my thing, though I do it.

The truth is, I just don't have the drive to be the prettiest and the thinnest. I can be happy for other people for their beauty.

Hollywood has definitely grown, in embracing the inclusion of Latinos in the world, because, for some time, we didn't exist. We were not part of any stories.

When I started acting, I was told over and over again, 'You're no good.' But I said to myself, 'You've got to keep it up.'

I think if you are young and you have children, you still have so much to prove. When you have children later in life, you lose a bit of that urge for working.

I believe eating well, and with people you love, is about feeding your body, heart, and soul - I used juicing to ensure I covered my nutritional bases every day, and as a tool to restore inner balance if my body needed a break from too much indulgence.
